Yes CJ, I can answer that question for you. Daddy and Mommy purchased season tickets, Daddy buys an Elmo shirt, we drive up one Saturday morning and then stand in line for you to see the Fresh Beat Band. That is how you get to Sesame Street.
Today was the first of many trips to Sesame Place this summer. As we rode home Daddy told Mommy that he was tired but it was a good tired. He had spent the day with his leading ladies and his closest friends. What more could a man ask for? CJ enjoyed herself so much that she slept through the early evening. She rode her first amusement park ride today, Big Bird's Hot Air Balloon Races. She also tried to climb a pyramid, and she climbed up, up, and away on the cargo nets with her Mommy. Daddy remained on the ground and watched his ladies' ascension. Next time we go, Daddy and CJ have a date with the Twirling cups. We left some things out because we need to distirubute our outings. OK, the lines were long too.
It was a great day (with no pun intended) and Daddy looks to spend many more of them with his Queen and Princess. We topped off the night with Daddy and CJ eating ice cream from Coldstone which might have to become the after Sesame Place ritual. Mommy enjoyed hers too but she was not on the couch with us.
Daddy prays he will always have dates like this with his Princess. Daddy praises God just for making this day possible. He will keep communicated with the man upstairs. God is preparing my table and the aroma is getting more and more defined. Keep praying, prayer changes things, people, and situations.
This blog will chronicle the journey between a new father and his daughter. It will highlight the ups and the downs, and all the lessons learned. It is my prayer that "C.J. and Me" will be an inspiration to all that the bond between father and daughter can be strong. It will also show the world that there are REAL men who help develop stellar women who will go on and shake up the world. Enjoy the journey and look daily to see what new and exciting things are going on in our lives!

CJ vs. Daddy
Well folks, I think it is beginning to happen. CJ and Daddy have been fussing with each other for the past fews days. CJ is not doing anything bad but she is riding a fine line. She knows the things she is doing and knows it is wrong. Daddy corrects her behavior and CJ does not like ot be corrected. So in return she chooses to do something similar to what she had been doing and look up at her Daddy to see how far she can get.
Now Daddy has to check himself from time to time becasue he does not want to scare CJ. He wants to be stern and wants her to understand the instructions and correction she is receiving. The line for Daddy is difficult too he may need to get a guage to keep him honest.
At the end of the day, CJ and her Daddy still are learing each other. Each day is filled with more and more relationship development. We are getting stronger but still have a long way to go. So pray for us because prayer changes things, people, and situations!

Not Understanding
We will have to talk more about it tomorrow but today CJ did not understand why she could not test out new couches with Mommy and Daddy.
CJ also did not understand why Daddy wanted her to sit down and watch her television shows. She was clearly upset and cried a bit.
Some things CJ will always have problems with. Daddy will alwyas try to explain to her why certain things are the way they are but he understands that she will simply not understand some things.
Pray for us though folks, prayer changes things, people, and situations.

Grease Monkey
Highlight of the day folks, CJ comes into the bedroom, this is while Daddy is in there too. SHe fusses about for a moment then quietly inches her way to wear an open jar of grease is. Daddy is looking for a tie to wear to church and when he looks up he sees that the television is covered with vaseline. You guessed it, CJ was busy and at work. Daddy could only look and shake his head. Daddy cleaned her up and sent her on her way but for the rest of the evening CJ sought to get back into that grease. When that girl sets her mind to something no one can change it. Daddy loves her determination and persistence, two great characteristics to have.
Cotinue to pray Gods movement in our lives. He still is cooking up a blessing and preparing us on how to handle it! Prayer changes things, people, and situations.

CJ is Getting Better
Well folks tonight was night two of revival at the church. The beauty is that CJ and Daddy were able to hang out with each other for a good length oof time before Daddy needed to leave out. For the past two days CJ has done well with Daddy leaving too. She is not crying and acting out which is a good thing.
CJ, however is still a little terror. Sh egets into so much and is daring with her actions. She will climb, fall, and mess up anything in her sight on purpose. She wasted a perfectly good bowl of cereal just becasue. Daddy can not figure out why she feels the need to do so but she does.
The Lord is really moving in our household. He is preparing Daddy for a breakthrough and has prepared Daddy on how he should deal with the blessing when it comes. Thsi blessing will make life better for Daddy and his leading ladies and God receives all the PRAISE!
Upon arrival home Daddy saw Mommy stretched out on the couch and CJ sleeping in her crib. Daddy is glad Cj is handling him leaving home much better. I pray she understands that Daddy never wants to leave her but he must do what he has to do to make life better her. Keep praying that the right situation is created for this family. Prayer chanegs things, people, adn situations.
